Under Bystorm/Universal Records, Tracey released a solo album entitled Many Facez (1997). This album included the hit single The Theme (It’s Party Time), which settled on Billboard’s Top 100 for thirty-seven weeks. He had the opportunity to collaborate with award-winning artist such as the Notorious B.I.G., Busta Rhymes, and Kanye West. Some of Tracey’s performances & appearances included BET Rap City: The Basement, BET Teen Summit, Keenan Ivory Wayans Show, and HBO Original Series: ARLI$$. Recently, he starred in the short film Unraveled, written and directed by business partner and wife, Lori Nelson Lee.

Tracey’s industry experience prompted him to seek a legal degree in an effort to become more knowledgeable about the music business. As a result, he earned a Juris Doctorate Degree in 2006.
